Dirk Krecker

(Translated from German by Claudia Liefeld)

Krecker is a Frankfurt-based German sculptor and fine artist whose work revolves around extremely involved text/ typewritten pieces that create visually dense structures, which in turn reveal glimpses of imagery within the layering and weaving of type. The information-rich imagery is a product for our times and the machines that are used to create it, an anachronism.
